Has a fossilized, reptilian spine been spotted on Mars by the Curiosity rover?

According to plenty of NASA watchers on the web, it's possible.

In the latest round of photos published by the space agency to the Internet, one picture caught the attention of the eagle-eyed public dedicated to poring over every pixel downloaded from the rover carefully making its way across the Martian landscape.

Down below is fossilized spine found here on earth :

Peeking out from the rocky, desert soil is a distinctive and familiar
looking shape. It resembles the fossilized remains of a lizard-like sea
creature with an elongated, twisting spine, much like those of reptilian
"dinosaurs" found all over archaeological digs explored on Earth for
the last several centuries. Right down to the tail.

It would appear that life had evolved in a similar manner as to Earth. Would that imply a same source of seeding of life or given the properties and materials in this solar system this is the path life takes.

If it is very similar to Earth it might be making a large statement about the beginnings of life here.

Looks like vertebrae to me. This brings up a couple of possibilities. Is the rover really on Mars? Were these bones brought there by space from another planet in the past? Were there creatures there in the past and if so what destroyed the planet?

Oh well, that thought pattern didn't cost one cent. I can figure out things cheaply. Could another planet in our solar system have had life? sure, why would anyone even think this was not possible. Maybe all life here was brought here somehow from a now extinct planet.

The rover they are driving on some old dried up lake bed on Earth just happened to drive by some old fossils...here on Earth.

Could be another NASA "Oooopsie" moment.

Watch for the NASA images to start getting Photoshopped again.

If we can make other countries "think" we sent something to Mars....creates a military tactical advantage as we could instead have put something military into orbit around the planet they don't know about....with that space missile launch.

I think those look as much like vertebrae of large sea animals as anything could. For one thing I do not see how wind erosion of rocks would possibly make a row of similarly shaped formations like that.

The thing that I completely fail to understand is the mentality by a lot of people that life on any planet but Earth is not only totally and completely impossible but also absolutely unacceptable.

We should be able to learn from history that a mentality like that of refusing to accept even the possibility of a new and previously unknown reality only holds back our progress as a civilization.

Interesting indeed. It does look like some sort of bone structure. If you follow the back right end of it, it seems to come from a trail which smooths out. What that means I do not know, but it unusual. What's going on, on Mars or what has been going on.

If you have to see a photo to know that life exist on other planets you have alot to learn. Some people on earth think were the only life in this universe. I don't laugh at them no more. I understand what it's like to be blind. Please find truth within yourself.

No I don't need to see a photo to realize life exists elsewhere.. I'm just saying that this is a great find.. I know life exists on other planets.. Why do you think I'm looking at a UFO/alien websites like this one..lol

It's all set up, ya'll act surprised or happy... this is only the beginning of PROYECTO RAYO AZUL AKA PROJECT BLUE BEAM.... nek minnet your gonna be posting about how cool it is that Jesus and Buddha are appearing 250ft tall in our skies. It's all a set up fools.

That being said, according to Graz Hancock life came from Mars, to Earth possibly Or that Planet X Nibiru destroyed what was then Tiamat and is now Mars.

What makes me suspicious and confused with claimings like this is to imagine that fossils with billions of years are on the surface of the planet, intact, like they died a few years ago... If that was the case then there would have a been a major ' recent' catasthrofic event and milions of visible fossils. No? If not, then with all the major regular storms on mars, wouldn't ' things' with millions of years, besides rocks, be way under the surface????

probably just rock. Not sure if Nasa would release a photo of evidence of previous life on mars to the public, probably would cover it up along with everything else. if it were real iam pretty sure curiosity would have taken samples which would have given the evidence to confirm that it is real. On the other hand it could very well be a fossil of a martian that once swam in the waters that flowed on mars thousands of years ago. who knows?

I'm pretty sure thats a still from Star Wars IV. :p Why do you guys think that an amazing discovery like this would be kept secret, and that you need to "bring the truth to the public". A fossil isn't threatening anyone, it doesn't scare anyone, it changes everything we think we know about life beyond Earth, but theres no reason to hide that from people. But all that aside, it doesn't matter because this isn't actually a fossilized spine.

It's clearly not. Why ? You don't find fossilised bones like that. The example you show from earth has been excavated by paleontologists. You might get a small piece exposed, but the whole spine section needs careful excavation to reveal
